"Fixaroof removed all my shingles and flatroof material down to the rafters because I had wooden shake shingles. They installed new plywood, new gaf shingles, weather watch, cobra ridge vents and what sold me on this job, gaf hip and ridge. There contract clearly stated that they would install the gaf hip and ridge. No one else's contract stated that after the roof removal they would be installing these or any hips for that matter. They did an absolute great job, my roof looks beautiful. I was so happy that I chose fixaroof to do my roof removal or roof rip as they called it, as to my previous run ins with roofers in the past was a nightmare, but James made it so pleasurable that I was shocked that there are still great roofing mechanics out there! I am calling my brother to recommend that they do his flat roof and I will recommend them to all my friends. Great job Fixaroof. Thank you for being honest!!!!"

"They did a great job removing the old skylight, which they informed me was the wrong one for my roof anyway. Within a few minutes, they were able to locate a brand new skylight which was the right one for my roof and installed it within a few hours. The work was done well, and they cleaned up very nicely afterwards. By the way, I showed them a problem with my awning and a small leak in my window pane, and they repaired both at no extra cost."

"The contractor was prompt in responding to my inquiry but unfortunately responded that they do not provide a roof repair service. My overall rating reflects the fact that they had an excellent response, but could not help me, so their overall rating is fair."

"Roofing expert from More Core (sorry, don't remember his name) located and fixed a small roof leak by caulking it, at no charge. Repair held up for 2 years, so I would say that's pretty good."

"Barb and her team are fantastic! We received a letter from our home owner's insurance company telling us that we needed to have mold and lichen removed from our roof or face costly penalties. As new home owners, the last thing we needed was to replace our roof after all the expenses of closing, moving, and making repairs. Barb came out to assess our roof, which turned out to be in great shape. Some close-proximity trees created the mold and lichen situation. With an expert consultation and some helpful instructions, Barb set us up for service. The team that came out to clean our roof was friendly, knowledgeable, efficient, and safety-focused. We had our roof and siding cleaned, which brought both amazing curb appeal and peace of mind knowing that we no longer had harmful lichen and mold that could damage our roof. I would highly recommend Roof Renew Pros LLC."

"Al and his team are fantastic. They came out on a Saturday to diagnose and repair a leak I had around a vent pipe in my roof. They always do quality, detailed work. They had painted my house last year and I still get compliments on how nice and clean everything looks. If you need any work outside or in call Al and his team."

"From the very first contact with Wagner Roofing, we knew that we would use them for our roof. We had other roofers out for estimates and they looked at our multi-level roof from the driveway and spat out a number. Wagner's representative actually took a ladder out of his truck and got on our roof (imagine that!) so that he could give us as specific an overview of the work that needed to be done as he could. He also spent a good amount of time with my husband and I, explaining the differences in shingle manufacturers and the products that would be used. <br /> Another factor that pushed us to use Wagner was that they provided a list of addresses of clients' homes so that we could see the shingles on roofs in the daylight instead of just a small rectangle in the sample book. The colors looked much different "in the real world" and that helped guide our decision as far as manufacturer and color went. <br /> After a couple of false-starts (cancellation due to rain, for which we were called days in advance), we had a solid date for our roof. We were told the crew would be here at 7:00 am and get started. To be honest, I thought 7-ish to drop off the shingles, then have coffee and breakfast to start the day. Nope; our doorbell rang at 7:00 sharp and the crew was busily unloading tools and materials while the foreman spoke with us about what was going to happen. There was no wasted time; our roof was stripped of the old layers and shingles started going on just as quickly. <br /> Again, we assumed they would be here until 4 or 5:00 pm, but they finished before 1 because of the machine-like precision every crew member used. They were courteous, professional and left our yard spotless! <br /> Their prices were in-line with and better than some of the other roofers and their service and professionalism were head-and-shoulders above the other people we had to the house. I cannot recommend them highly enough! <br />"

FAQs for roofing installation & roof repair projects in Edison, NJ

An average Cape Cod roof-raising project requires approximately two to three months from start to finish. The timeline depends on several variables, including weather conditions, contractor availability, material delivery schedules, and the specific complexity of your home's structure. The process involves multiple phases, including demolition, framing, roofing, window installation, and interior finishing. Working with an experienced contractor who provides a detailed timeline can help set realistic expectations for the project duration.

While most Cape Cod homes can accommodate roof-raising modifications, each house requires individual structural assessment. Older homes may need foundation reinforcement or wall strengthening before supporting additional weight. Factors like the existing roof framing system, load-bearing wall placement, and overall structural integrity all influence feasibility. A qualified structural engineer should evaluate your specific property before proceeding with design plans. Additionally, local zoning ordinances may restrict maximum building height or architectural modifications in certain neighborhoods.

Temporary relocation is highly recommended during a Cape Cod roof raising project. The construction process involves removing portions of your existing roof, exposing interior spaces to potential weather damage, and creating significant noise and dust. Most homeowners find temporary accommodations for the two to three-month construction period, with relocation costs ranging from $2,000 to $6,000, depending on your housing choices. If staying with family or friends isn't possible, budget for short-term rental or extended-stay hotel expenses as part of your overall project cost.

Consider roof raising when you experience severely limited headroom throughout the second floor, find yourself constantly stooping under sloped ceilings, or have minimal usable floor space due to low ceiling heights. Other indicators include inadequate natural light, poor ventilation, and difficulty accommodating standard furniture in upstairs rooms. Simple renovations can improve an attic's appearance, but cannot create additional headroom without structural modifications. A complete roof-raising project makes more sense than cosmetic renovations if you're seeking genuine second-floor living space rather than just storage improvements.

Begin your search by seeking contractors with specific experience in Cape Cod structural modifications and dormer additions. Request detailed portfolios showing similar completed projects and ask for references from previous clients with comparable work. Verify that potential contractors hold appropriate licenses and insurance coverage and understand local building codes relevant to roof raising. Interview multiple candidates, comparing price quotes and their communication style, project approach, and proposed timeline. The ideal contractor should demonstrate a thorough understanding of Cape Cod architectural characteristics and structural requirements.
